Hearing we made a huge impression on a new QB

2020 QB Max Johnson spent the weekend with the staff in Baton Rouge. His Dad is former Bucs QB Brad Johnson. We're now in prime position for him from what I was told. He and Finley together would be a hell of a QB haul for 20.

Thought Finley was told no other QB would be pursued.

He was not. That was a case of a recruit and his Dad hearing what they wanted to hear and not listening to the whole conversation.

I am not crazy about Finley.
That is in no way a knock on the young man. I hope he proved me wrong. I felt the same way about Brandon Harris when I saw him at Parkway. Hopefully we have learned to develop QB's as Finley is a project.

Why?

I noticed Finley had a 47% completion percentage this season... not exactly a great stat considering he’s against high school competition, I would expect at least 60%.

Finley is very raw. All the pieces are there, but he will need development to get to where he needs to be IMO. Someone like Johnson that has an ex-NFL QB for a Dad and grew up around the game will be more ready. His arm isn't as good as Finley's no doubt, but he is more polished of a passer at this point from what I can tell.

Is that Dad/Richt relationship pretty strong from their FSU days?

go full force after DJ Uiagalelei from bosco
and then offer him a truck load of cash and gold

Well, we all know LSU is a QB development machine.

Considering they are Brother-in-law's, I'd say it's ok lol

I read he is Richt’s nephew or something like
That.
That.

I’m hearing Finley might be going to IMG next year, if he does, we might get a better idea how good he could be. He definitely has a long way to go IMO.

Watch out for Caleb Holstein. He is putting up video game numbers at STM and is 6’5” with a big arm
Posted on 11/18/18 at 1:34 pm to VolTiger13
There’s still someone else in the mix,imo

When all is said and done I don't think Finley will end up signing with LSU. I think he is headed for a mid major.

So basically he won’t ever see the field here because I don’t know if you’ve noticed but we don’t develop QB’s. Brandon Harris 2.0

DJ is favoring USC and Oregon. Bama is on him big time.

Finley just doesn’t have that it factor. I watched him in person a few times and I just don’t see the kid panning out. He doesn’t move well at all and from talking to people that know him well, he’s not a good teammate or leader of his team. I’m sorry, but if you are an SEC caliber QB, there’s no way in hell your high school team should go 2-8.

Who was the last qb that LSU developed? Just asking.
